The Dao De Jing by Laozi: Offering A Gateway For Living In The Twenty-First Century (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798665275468)

Are you amazed by nature - how it all works together so harmoniously? Do you think about what is required to have a good society or what a good politician looks like? Do you have a practice of self-cultivation? Do you think about what is required to live a good life? If you do, this charming book of philosophical poetry is for you. This translation of the nearly 2500 year old text of the Dao De Jing benefits from some of the recent excellent scholarship in the field of ancient Chinese philosophy. It re-inserts some of the interjective expressions that were included in the earliest known versions of the text, and seeks to keep alive the ideal of a society based upon a profound respect for nature, and a balanced enjoyment of life shared with all our relations, a vision sorely needed in today's world.
